Show uu EARLY FRUITS HAVE GONE TO CANNERS Ogden shippers say that the cherry and apricot crops for export aro not heavy, as most of such fruits go to the canners at homo. Shipments from Wober county this year In cherries cher-ries are said to havo not exceeded 15 or 17 cars and only 10 cars of apricots apri-cots were sent out. Many of the Webor county apricots were shipped to Grand Junction canners, the crop In that locality being a failure. But few pears are raised In Weber county on account of excessive blight and shippers aro not figuring on much of a business in that line this season. It Is expected that tho crop will bo gathered and disposed of In a few days after It begins to ripen. At least normal shipping In peaches Is anticipated and the shippers expect ex-pect to begin to move tho crop the latter part of this month. oo |
